Welcome to Week 8 of The Worksheet, a fantasy football overview, by Rich Hribar.

It is almost hard to believe it, but we are already in Week 8. That means we are about to close the books on nearly two-thirds of the fantasy season. Hopefully, you are all heading into the final turn of the regular season in good condition. Last week, we had a number of injuries impact the rest of the season once again. Make sure you are staying up on the injury news and checking for updates as that news comes out during the week. Week 8 features four more teams on bye, so make sure to account for all of your players on the Cardinals, Jaguars, Texans, and the Football Team as you approach waivers.

This article will be updated throughout the week to reflect major news or injury implications. I encourage that you use the game by game tables and data points here in conjunction with the player rankings that will be available every week this season each Wednesday and enjoy the games.
